I'd actually heard from a neighbor that he loves this place. I don't like fried food, but I figured we'd give it a try anyway. Hey - they have burritos, so yet another "fried seafood and burrito" place on Telegraph. The first one didn't disappoint...

Unfortunately, this one did disappoint. All the fried fish was bizarrely hard, though to be fair the crust wasn't greasy. Vaguely tasteless and otherwise kinda nasty, but not greasy. Woo.

The hushpuppies were also bland. The burrito was bland. Everything was bland and left us feeling like we were glad we stopped eating before we felt gross.

I believe that this is the place that made 2 other friends sick. I was hoping this wasn't the same place, but after eating there I fear that it was. Yuk.

I guess you think you're being so cosmopolitan, witty and clever by bashing a fried seafood place after you say you don't like fried fish, but I would like to remind you that as a journalist, even an amatuer one, you have a responsibilty to write in a fair and objective manner.

The folks that run this shop are hard-working, taxpaying members of our community that deserve your respect. A one-star Yelp review means the retaurant is really awful. This place is good by any objective measure.

About Me

Food is an important reflection and expression of any neighborhood. With Eating up Telegraph (and other like projects) we hope to showcase the variety that a single stretch of asphalt can offer the neighborhood diner. And while we'll continue to eat our way up (and down) main thoroughfares, we figured we should start a main food blog for all the other dining and cooking adventures that come our way. That blog is Eat Up, Eat Well - which is our mantra and, we think, just plain good advice.
Eating well doesn't have to mean spending a lot of money. It just means you have to enjoy yourself.
And that's not that hard - really! Food should be fun.
